Great cable disk brakeI really like these BB7's. I use them on a wide variety of bikes - This particular one was to go on the front of my longtail cargo bike, giving me 200mm front and 160mm rear BB7's. They're so easy to adjust, and are smooth and progresive. The big 200mm disk copes well with masses of heat, keeping my stuidly heavy loaded bike at sensible speeds on some of the steep hills here. I've got 4 sets of these now.

Can I swap my Tektro Novela with BB7s without changing any other components?

Brake lever compatibility

I've go a Boardman 2010 comp hybrid with Avid FR-5 levers and AVID BB5 road disc brakes, will I be able to upgrade to AVID BB7 mountain disc brakes and still use the same levers or will I need to buy AVID BB7 road brakes?
One of the reasons I'm checking is the AVID BB7 mountain generally seems cheaper than the road version.

Asked by: Redshock

I can confirm that the BB5 and BB7 levers and calipers should be cross-compatible without any issues.

What is the advantage of choosing a smaller disk size?

Is there any advantage to choosing a smaller disk size other than maybe a tiny weight saving? It seems to me it makes sense to get the biggest available (for the front wheel at least).
